    Deuce w/winch for sale

    This erratic behavior is simply caused by sleep depravation. My recommendation is you should immediately start collecting guns. rofl

    Newbie Exhaust Question

    The NAPA mod was one of the first mods I did. I drove the deuce with the stock pipe for a while, but started using it a lot as my farm truck. In all honesty, I miss the sound, but I enjoy taking it down back roads under 45 mph with my ear drums intact. All in all, I am glad I did the mod...

    Will this filter WMO?

    Don't run the drum at any PSI, they were never designed for that, add to that the fact that they are used, have been handeled, dinged around and so on. I know people do it and will say it's fine, but think about the one that will rupture and spill out 55 gallons of oil. Think twice about that...

    Will this filter WMO?

    Barrman makes a good point, if there is oil available and best case free, you need to be able to grab it while you can. ROI - Return on investment is quick, plus it makes the driving experience that much more fun. I ended up driving the deuce a lot more than I expected because of the smile...

    Will this filter WMO?

    It will work for a while, but dm is correct, you will slow to a drip until it stops. Gravity feed systems while in theory are simple and cheap, but the time trade off isn't worth it. You really shouldn't pressurize a 55 gallon drum either. How were you planning on filling the upper 55 gallon...

    Alternative Fuels for M35 Multi

    Santa, Yes, it's a 275 gallon lay down home heating oil tank, you can mount it one of two ways. If you mount it long way in the bed, it makes the valves more accessable. Lessons learned on this one. The gravity drain is not a good option, it just takes way too long. I hook a pump to the...

    Best WMO to gas ratio with FDC bypassed?

    I third that, I have been runing ~80/20 wmo to gas, and it has been getting cooler. Worse thing I have seen so far is that I had to depress the pedal a bit to get her started, she runs great and loves the 80/20 mix. Before the real cold stuff gets here though, I will go straight diesel. FDC...

    Alternative Fuels for M35 Multi

    I have four 330 gallon tanks that I use to store and process the oil. The deuce gets a 275 gallon steel home heating oil tank that mounts horizontally, low center of gravity, and is used to collect the oil. One the collect the oil, I transfer it to the first holding tank filtered through an...

    Hurricane IKE M35's in use

    So here is the big question, when you take a deuce through this type of water, I assume it is salt water ??? what do you do the the deuce afterwards. Dump all the oil in the axels? repack hubs ?... Any thoughts. I know these components are vented, but if these were your trucks, what you would...
